[bobws]

[Meule]

Oh hell yes, bring it on

[Fuzzysnail]

YES! This line sounds exciting! I know I'm getting them. Raydeen, if they do what you have suggested above, and design all the characters on that art, they will be FANTASTIC! That's the ultimate homage to Mego too, using the characters costumes from Mego's era. I don't want this to become tatinted with characters like Steel, Nightwing, etc though like so many other current lines are. They should stick to the Mego-era comic book references in my opnion. So far they have so that's a GREAT sign! Yeah, to heck with Steel and such...bring on Captain Boomerang and Toyman!!

So I think that's the perfect idea Raydeen, new 8 inch figures costumed exactly like that artwork! Ingenuous!

Maybe not the best marketing move.....ignoring the characters that todays kids know about....but as long as your happy

They could do a separate series of modern characters in addition to this retro one.

I'd rather see Mego era female characters like Cheetah and a non Pirate Catwoman.

As long there is no red and blue Superman, I'll be content.

i'm sure there are still some of these on the shelves at KB.

After I wrote that, I knew somebody would mention the Swan version. I was basing that solely on the 90s electric version.

[MegoMark71]

I will buy every figure they put out.

My point about Harley Quinn was in response to the DC style guide
images that were posted - it was not a teaser.

Early in this process, someone at one of the companies asked us
if megos could only be done with '70s characters - would more
recent characters fit the mego mold. I told him that if the look
of the character worked in cloth costumes and rotocast heads,
it would be fine.

Lobo and Bane - in their comic book versions - don't lend
themselves to fabric, but simplified in animation, and they
can work.

[The Bat]

I will buy every figure they put out.

I'll wait until I see what they look like first.

As we speak, my long time friend Paul "Dr. Mego" Clarke is at the Mattel panel at Comic Con, where it has just been announced that we are bringing back the DC World's Greatest Superheroes in partnership with Mattel. Wave One, out before easter 2010 will include:

Green Arrow
Hal Jordan GL
Superman
Lex Luthor
Sinestro

I'll go on later about behind the scenes stuff we've been quiet about, but I wanted you guys to be the first to hear the announcement as it was going on.

FANTASTIC NEWS!!!!!!
